Only a Hobo

[Verse 1] As I was out walking on a corner one day I spied an old hobo, in a doorway he lay His face was all grounded in the cold sidewalk floor And I guess he'd been there for the whole night or more [Chorus] He was only a hobo, but one more is gone Leaving nobody to sing his sad song Leaving nobody to carry him home He was only a hobo, but one more is gone (One chord for a while okay?) [Verse 2] (Now listen here) A blanket of newspaper covered his head As the step was his pillow, the street was his bed One look at his face showed the hard road he’d come (Yes it did) (Anybody could tell) And a fistful of coins showed the money he bummed [Chorus] He was only a hobo, but one more is gone Leaving nobody to sing his sad song Leaving nobody to carry him home He was only a hobo, but one more is gone (Give me that one chord) (Play the thing now) [Harmonica Solo] [Verse 3] Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down (Or a woman, or a girl, or anyone in the world) To look up on the world from a hole in the ground To wait for your future like a horse that's gone lame To lie in the gutter and die with no name [Chorus] He was only a hobo, but one more is gone Leaving nobody to sing his sad song Leaving nobody to carry him home He was only a hobo, but one more is gone [Outro] Only, only a hobo, but one more is gone (Thank you very much) (We're gonna take a little ten minute break)
